About this property

A two bedroom, dog friendly cottage in Brixham with a chic design throughoutA two bedroom, dog friendly cottage in Brixham with a chic design throughout

Set in the peaceful area of Churston, just outside Brixham, Swallows Cottage combines the quaint appearance of a traditional country cottage with stylish features and an impressive décor throughout.

The open plan living, kitchen and dining space makes it easy to while away lazy evenings in style, and features such as the treasure chest coffee table and the spiral staircase in the living space give the cottage a contemporary feel. There’s a bright, elegant quality to this space that makes it easy to unwind after a busy day exploring Brixham’s attractions, and whether you visit as a family or with friends you’ll find the cottage makes a welcoming base to return to at the end of a day exploring.

Outside, you’ll find a modest side garden complete with a table and chairs for two and a grassy area. So, if you’re planning on a stay with your dog in tow, you’ll be able to sip on something cool while he enjoys stretching his legs on the grass in the secure garden, and just wait until he sees some of the dog friendly beaches along South Devon's picturesque coastline or one of the fantastic woodland walks around the village.

When bedtime rolls around, you’ll find the master bedroom awaits, and with a kingsize bed, curved walls and exposed wooden beams, it’s a cosy space to retreat to at the end of a day. You’ll find Swallows Cottage in Brixham’s peaceful Churston Ferrers, within an easy drive from Greenway – Agatha Christie’s former summer home on the river Dart, as well as the many attractions of Brixham and the rest of beautiful Torbay.

As part of the Blue Chip Paws collection, Swallows Cottage has a whole list of items to make your four-legged friend feel as welcome as you do. Click here to see what’s available in your Blue Chip Paws property.

    We were homeless and Blue Chip came to our aid; let me explain. We completed on our house late May 2016. Our park home was not ready and we went into two properties before worrying about our next temporary home. Sue's sister had used Blue Chip to book her holiday property in Brixham so we had a go; being mindful of the requirement for a property that can take two miniature poodles. We needed to be near Paignton (our final destination) and so the Blue Chip web site came up with Elberry Cottage; initially for two weeks but extended to 30 days! The first impressions of Elberry Cottage were "what an amazing place". Very welcome gifts were left on the dining table with a folder containing a. A stone floor in the lounge/diner with an open fire (lit it first time, yay!). We bought some covers to put over the settee and chair (to stop dirty paws from marking the furniture). The window seat (over an enclosed radiator) was ideal for the dogs waiting for us to come back from shopping, etc. The kitchen had a wooden floor and so was easily cleaned. The electric two-compartment oven needed a review of the instructions (contained in the very useful folder). However, it had a lower door that was related to Arkwright's "Open All Hours" till - at least the heat was kept in the oven. The fridge/freezer held quite a lot of food. Up the stairs from the front door is two bedrooms (a double and bunk-bed) and a shared bath/shower room. The bath was a rolled-top slipper bath on four ornate legs. It looked too good to use so we stayed with the shower ;-) From the kitchen a back door leads to a part-paved garden and an out building containing a games room and laundry room (containing a washing machine, dryer, iron and board, toilet and basin). The refuse wheely bin and recycling containers had to be taken through next door's garden for a Thursday morning and brought back when emptied. There is a large LED TV to the left of the fireplace. The TV had Freeview channels which we were familiar with. There was also a DVD player connected to the TV. There is free WiFi through a router that can handle up to five appliances (I had a WiFi printer/scanner which performed admirably through WiFi). Would we stay here again? We certainly would. The neighbours were very pleasant and had a chat at every chance - nice!
